I'm trying to add a non-Google email address as an app administrator
(to be used for sending email), but it's not working.

Steps:

1. Admin -> Permissions -> Add new user with role "owner".
2. The new user name shows as "pending".
3. The confirmation email says the invitation is to be a "developer"
of the app, even though the "owner" role was selected.
4. After the confirmation email is accepted, the new user name
disappears from the list and it's not possible to login with this user
name.

Also, the system talks about "admin's" but no such role is mentioned
in the Permissions page. Inconsistent.

Thanks!
Rori

Also, if a Google account is created for the new user it still does
not work.

If you own the domain of your non-Google email address, you can make it a Google apps domain. This works for me. I added f.i. an email address like nor...@mydomain.nl as a viewer for sending mail.

That worked. Thanks.

Did you login in first to appengine.google.com with the new account before adding it to the permission list ?
